How can I edit a question in an assignment? 

Instructors can edit a question, its hint, and the question feedback in the Question Editor from the Content Repository. Additionally, instructors can add or edit information fields (e.g. learning objective, level of difficulty, or other metadata). The information field values allow sorting and filtering in the Content Repository and during assignment creation, and they facilitate performance reporting by the information field category. 

In Sage amp courseware, content that the publisher has shared with the instructor cannot be modified but can their assignment policies altered. In other words, this content cannot be deleted or changed.

In order to edit or delete this type of question, the content must be cloned within the Content Repository in order to preserve the original content during the editing process.

What is the Content Repository? 

The Content Repository provides instructors a central location for creating, organizing, finding, and sharing course content with students. Through the repository, you can create and organize the content for your class, including questions and assignments. The default source selected in the Content Repository is your current class. You can also view questions and assignments in all of your classes. The Content Repository can be accessed via the top menu bar of the Class Homepage.
